Segun Wealth, the photographer husband of celebrity designer Toyin Lawani, has stirred reactions with his troubling post.
In a now-deleted social media post, the photographer noted that he isn’t the first man to have kids with another woman. He made it clear that having kids for him doesn’t mean he will kill himself.
“Good, you push me to the point I won’t care.
No be me first get kids with another woman.
You’ll be alright.
I need to look after me too.
Even my other child, I no dey do half of wetin I dey do for una.
I never even do the investments I do for your own children for am.
I no act based on the narrative that you pushed on me.
I no talk about you; I kept quiet through it because I said I won’t.
That’s not because I’m stupīd or scared; I didn’t want to put words out there the way you did because I know the internet.
But now if you wan try am again, I dey for you.
If we been marry and you get children for me, no mean say I go kill myself.
I do what’s right; I try to build trust funds and sustainable structures that you yourself couldn’t maintain or grow.
You will throw your stones and hide your hands.
Even my family go dey tell me nonsense.
In another post, he said his ex was denying him custody of his kids. He said he is constantly being bombarded with bills, which he gladly pays, yet he is still denied quality time with his kids.
He noted how if he decides to turn his back, his kids would suffer. Segun questioned why he is still being denied access to his kids despite being dedicated.
“Even when I work myself to the ground, your kids are always a priority; even when it’s not convenient, they still come first.
Even when I ask to spend holidays with them,
It’s never possible; it’s always one excuse after another, to the point that I gave up on asking. I travelled all the way down to surprise them; you gave excuses.
But all I get is the bills part, which I do gladly, even when it’s not convenient. Even when I’m down, all you care about is that part; I’m mindful of our kids and other kids around
But when I ask for them to be sent to me to spend family time with them, I’m never granted,
If I decide to turn my back, they are the ones who will suffer,
If I’m doing all I’m supposed to do, why am I being denied their presence the way I want it?
Do I want to run away with them?
Even when you make demands, and I say I’ve heard and am mindful of them, you start your drama, and in the end they call me a narcissist.
I won’t even talk much about how we got here. If we can not coexist and support each other, then leave me alone.
I no come your life, and you know what I mean.
I’m quiet not because I don’t have anything to say, but because of the kids. I took the fall for, and I’m still taking it, but everything has a limit”.
